[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmanjj:
I did this. No luck. Also I can't update my superuser app so I have the old one with the ninja.

Edit: so I manually flashed the newer superuser zip for 2.2 and it updated that way. I re-downloaded virtous 1.0.1 full rom, thing is like 264mbs I think. Anyway I was on wifi new router full signal and it finished. Same error came up after booting to recovery and trying to flash the zip. Error was file directory and next line was (bad) I have wiped and all. No luck. Please help I'm dying to flash new roms!!

Are you going through rom manager, or simply dl to sd and reboot manually to recover?

THE LINKS I POSTED ARE NOT WORKING JUST GO TO THE i9000 XDA THREAD AND DOWNLOAD EVERYTHING FOR SOME REASON LINKS ARE NOT WORKING BUT JUST FOLLOW THE SAME INSTRUCTIONS ON HERE AND GET YOUR DOWNLOADS FROM THAT THREAD! THANKS

I thought Id post this since I have had a lot of success and even though I did this on my back up Captivate I am now using it as a daily driver as my only problems now have just been rotation even the buttons work. Network, Data, Calling everything is perfect and its insanely fast. I thought it really was very easy to do and it really does pay dividends if you flash and take it STEP BY STEP.

CHANGELOG

20110222

This build comes from teamhacksung repo which should be mainline compatible now.

It comes with silent updater-script. Don't be shocked!

- more camera fixes

- fixed touchscreen (thanks to DW1985 for this.- enabled 10 point multitouch

So here we go:

Flash Back To Stock

Flash latest Cognition 4 or any 2.2 ROM that converts to EXT4 (I only tested with Cog 4 so thats why Im saying that)

Then Download this:

Initial package:Copy following files to your internal sdcard

- galaxys-efsbackup.zip

- cm7-galaxys-initial-XXXXXXXX.zip

Flash "speedmod-kernel-k12n-500hz.tar" (i9000) or any of the latest speedmods osing odin or CWM I have tested both.

Reboot into recovery using 3-button-combo and apply galaxys-efsbackup.zip.

- Don't use "reboot recovery" command to do this!

Flash cm7-galaxys-initial-kernel.tar as pda using odin without auto-reboot

Reboot into recovery using 3-button-combo

Choose "mounts & storage" and format system, data, cache

Apply zip from sdcard: cm7-galaxys-initial-XXXXXXXX.zip

Do a wipe!

REBOOT!

And there you go CM7 will be booting on your Cappy!

Captivate Bugs Ive Run into: Auto Rotation is still messed up but just turn auto rotation off once boots and you will be fine. And the search and back buttons do not work.

I hope this helped you as it really isnt that hard just follow each step and everything will be great.

Have a good day and again hope this helped.

Thats really weird Ill just upload them. Sorry
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
Great I have been wanting to try this but I don't know how to build it so I was waiting for someone to help out. Looking forward to giving this a try.
[Captivate Android Development] insaneturbo13:
orientation is in the kernel now, id the kernel was built for the captivate like the devs are working on now, orientation would work

this is not authorized by the cmsgs team, i think it would be wise to remove this thread until they are ready to release it.
[Captivate Android Development] fykick:
This post is full of fail.

Should research more before posting a built kernel and then posting bug reports about bugs that have been fixed and could easily be known by doing a bit of research before trying to be the first to post a fail post.

Kthx.
[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
wow, please remove these. you have no permission from the cmsgsteam to post these. there's a reason these haven't been publicly shared. take them down.
[Captivate Android Development] boardsportsrule:
Agreed. Please wait for something that works with a little more stability before posting this. While i know you're trying to help, and for you it sounds like CM7 is working great, who are people going to turn to when they need help with this 'rom'? Please take this down until some one is ready to publicly release and support CM7!!

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] collins521:
So I was messing with my Vibrant 4G and flashed a voodoo color and then it wasn't giving me any signal so I went into Odin and went to go back to stock with the AIO Vibrant Toolbox and totally jacked it up. I am able to get back to the downloading screen and Odin recognizes it but I need to get back to stock.

Hopefully there is a fix already or am I stuck with this like this till someone has something?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] collins521:
If I use the Hawk pit and then the tar for the VUV will that get me going?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] troby1986:
your stuck for now, I used the pit and kab tar and got stuck in a recovery loop, had to take it to tmobile to swap it out
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] troby1986:
Howd you flash a kernal with no custom recovery
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] collins521:
I had rooted and also put clockwork recovery on it....I was so hoping you were going to say I could use those two files to get me up and going
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] collins521:
I did do a nandroid of my rom before I flashed the voodoo...was working somewhat after voodoo until I tried to use Odin and then got into this mess.

Wish there was a way to just use my nandroid
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] troby1986:
Which clockwork recovery?? 2.5.1.2 - 2.5.1.4 do not support the 4g yet.....ive tried
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] troby1986:
Are you not able to get back into clockwork now, if you had it
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] collins521:
Ya with the clockwork recovery that was through rom manager...I was actually able to get into clockwork recovery too which is where I flashed that vodoo fix but did a nandroid backup before. Not sure where the nandroid went cause it's not on the memory card
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] collins521:
When I try and reboot it, it shows the Vibrant screen and flashes that on/off and then also if I plug it in the computer it shows the battery with the hourglass like symbol
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] troby1986:
Your the first person I have heard that has a custom recovery on the Vibrant 4G. It's kind of hard to believe.

I would love to help you out more, but I need the truth as to how you messed your phone up.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] collins521:
Alright I'll tell you since I'm the first it seems.

Root - SuperOneclickroot

Then download Rom Manager - Install Clockwork Recovery via menu

Reboots into recovery and select "reinstall packages" it fails so I went onto google and found the "3e recovery installer" script.

That didn't work right off the bat so I did some more reading and then used the superoneclickroot and selected "Shell root" and then ran the 3e recovery installer script again. It worked and then installed clockwork recovery via menu again and rebooted into recovery...selected "reinstall packages" once again, it failed but then did it again and bingo went into Clockwork Recovery.

From there I flashed the vodoo fix I found on the site where it is and then got back into the software but didn't get any service so I went into AIO toolbox and ran reboot to stock or whatever it was and then followed those directions and now I'm where I'm at
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] collins521:
Now I know I had a ton of stuff on my memory card but now after messing with Odin and doing what it did I don't have anything on my card but there is like 4gb of space it isn't showing...

**Edit, and to make matters worse is I just bought this on Craigslist so I can't just return it to the store which blows**
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] troby1986:
HI hY

Wow, that actually worked! Congrats! Now we just need a ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] collins521:
Glad it worked for ya...now we just need to get me up and running, I'm not completely dead since I can still get into Downloading mode correct?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] troby1986:
Are you able to hard boot into clockwork recovery? If so, I would say try getting into recovery, mount your sdcard, drop bionix 1.3 on it and flash...just to get you operational. Then search around for the stock KB5 Rom, if you cant find it, I will make one and post it just give me 30 mins

Or you can try to flash the dump I uploaded
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] collins521:
How would I go about hard booting into clockwork? I've tried holding both volume down and power and releasing when it shows "vibrant" but nothing...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] troby1986:
Power down the phone by pulling the battery

Replace the battery and backing. Now hold both volume buttons and the power button.

When you see the vibrant screen, release the power but keep holding the volume buttoms.

When you see yellow texr, release the volume buttons
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] collins521:
I wish it was that easy, when I release the power button it just goes to a white screen and then back to "Vibrant" and samsung at the bottom and keeps cycling that no matter how long I hold any buttons down
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] troby1986:
So then you have a Vibrant not a Galaxy S 4G, because the 4G says "Galaxy S 4G" not "Vibrant"

Anyways, Im not sure how to fix that, I would advise waiting for the official Odin PIT and TAR
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ConeyKiller:
Just curious as to perhaps what will be the last version of android everyone thinks we will see for captivate? 2.2? 2.3? Hell even 2.4 or 5? Usually you can only go so far because of outdated hardware right?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whiteguypl:
No way of knowing.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ninjuh:
With the dual core smartphone lineup being rolled out, I don't think to many people will go through the effort of porting new software on outdated hardware. Na mean, son?

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rpicaso:
Agreed, KB1 FROYO will be the last official update for the Captivate.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ConeyKiller:
I know these are just opinions, but that would be a real let down on Samsungs part. Putting out a great phone and only giving it one major update x months late, then pulling the plug. At least give it one last great update before its viking funeral. For a total of two lol...i know what some of you were thinking of saying that 2.2 was	THAT update.

[Nook Color General] cardriverx:
Hey guys, so I did some research, and it seems the only info that was relevent was this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=959823&highlight=wifi+problem

But that does not help my problem.

So heres the deal. I am running Nookie Froyo 0.6.8 on the eMMC. I started with a Nook updated to 1.1.0, then rooted. Then I installed Nookie Froyo.

Now, I am having issues with the wifi. What happens is that the wifi will work for a minute, then start oscillating between connected and disconnected.

The problem is worse when tethered with my Hero. For example, I connect to my Hero's Wifi tether, then load a web page. The Nook will download about 70Kb, then hang for about 15 sec, then download another about 50-100Kb, then hang, etc.

So I connect to the University of Pittsburgh's wireless network. It works better, but every once of a whole it hangs. Also, after about 5 min, if I go into settings, the wifi keeps turning on and off. It will just turn itself on and off and I need to restart.

So like I said, it is worst with tethering but the wifi is unstable with PITTnet too. I have restarted many times... dunno what to do.

Thanks for the help!
[Nook Color General] luigi90210:
you can try reinstalling froyo on your NC(i had lots of problems with froyo so i dumped it for HC which imo is better)

i did have a wifi problem though where i entered a secondary password on my grandparents wifi(my uncle set up 2) where i would connect for 5 mins than drop connection but that was fixed by entering the primary password

hope this helps

luigi90210
[Nook Color General] cardriverx:
Yeah, I think I will just try installing HC and report back.
[Nook Color General] cardriverx:
Just wanted to say, I flashed to HC, and it works a lot better than I thought it would! Also, the multitasking is GREAT!

BTW, tethering has been rock solid so far! Also, it seems to be only a little slower than the Xoom I got to play with today, which is awesome for a hacked build :). Web browsing is great. There are just a few small UI hiccups here and there, nothing that prevents function tho!

Also, out of curiosity, any idea when we will see HC gmail?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xfranchize:
i finally rooted my phone, ive been hearing lots of stuff about rooting your phone being a great way to explore your phone.

1. what does it really do?

2. whats cool features can i do to the rooted phone?

3. what do i do now that im rooted?

(if i post this in the wrong section im sorry)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FNugget:
Unix based systems run files based on permissions. If you don't have permission, you can't do certain things. Rooting gives you root access i.e. gives you superuser permission i.e. you have access to system files.

Some apps require that level of access to change things. That's pretty much it.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xfranchize:
are there any useful apps i should know about?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FLAC Vest:
Titanium Backup lets you create backups of all applications and settings. The awesome thing is, rather than just download the game onto a new phone (or a restored old one) and start over, you can install on multiple phones, bringing the applications right back to where you started.

This is a must have application for anyone doing mods to their phone.

Umm... well I can think of others but those don't directly relate to the Atrix... there are screen shot apps,...

But you can install ROMs and kernels after routing as well.

I know the sdk was just released for developers but motorola has had it for awhile. I wonder why they did not release a single app? I say a very lazy move on motorola's end. Oh and by the way I love this tablet I am addicted to it.
[Xoom General] Vandam500:
I think because its a Google Experience device it doesn't come with any extra apps, just the stock ones.
[Xoom General] falconeight:
Ya I didn't expect for them to have a ui on top of honeycomb but a single app would of been cool.
[Xoom General] falconeight:
Maybe I am just being picky.
[Xoom General] bug_nuts:
Lazy means..... being the first honeycomb tablet to market?... its a google experience... have u seen motoblur...... you do not want that on your phone....

What app did you program? you lazy?
[Xoom General] martonikaj:
Wait, haven't people always been complaining that Motorola keeps putting software on their devices?

I dunno about you, but I prefer when Motorola doesn't do anything to their ROMs. It delays updates, and its never good software anyways.
[Xoom General] dino325:
i agree, moto can keep their hands off the software portion.
[Xoom General] arrtoodeetoo:
I'm glad they left it alone. No bloatware is fine by me!
[Xoom General] falconeight:
on wp7 HTC made some nice apps for their phones. You don't have to use them but they are good apps. I am not talking about a ui like blur or sense.
[Xoom General] jashsu:
No thanks to any bundled apps from the manufacturer, as all of that is stored in read-only system memory. If I want a weather widget, I'll write it myself or get one from the Market.

I would be fine with bundled applications, as long as I have the option to uninstall the apps I don't want.

Just glad they didn't force Motoblur on it.
[Xoom General] martonikaj:
Unfortunately, that's not how it works with these phone companies lol.

This. Some of the manufacturer apps are nice but most of them are waste of space.

anyways, count me in to the people that are happy there is no motoblur on our xooms.

[Defy General] Brent099:
I'm a bit disappointed in the gorilla glass used in my Defy. I've had the phone for a little over a month and haven't abused it, but last week I noticed a squiggly hairline crack about a 1/4 of an inch long and it has slowly gotten longer since I first noticed it. The day that it happened it was in my pocket with my keys and may have been subjected to some pressure, but nothing significant.

Since this is supposed to be a scratch-proof phone do you think there is any way I can get it replaced under warranty? I purchased it new from T-Mobile just over a month ago. Either way, I'm very disappointed that it scratched so easily.
[Defy General] Erra:
I have read of a few instances where people where able to have their phones replaced due to the glass scratching as it is marketed as a scratch resistant phone.
[Defy General] ABC_Universal:
It is scratch resistant, not scratch proof, nevermind crack.
[Defy General] Step666:
Exactly right.

For the glass to have cracked, there must have been a fair amount of pressure applied to it and there's no way Motorola or anyone else is going to accept responsibility for that.

As for scratch resistance, I've taken a stanley knife to a Galaxy S (also has Gorilla glass) and there was minimal scratching, very difficult to tell it had been 'attacked'.

[Defy General] Tinderbox (UK):
No Diamond rings in her bag :D
[Defy General] watt9493:
The treatment gorilla glass goes through in the manufacturing process makes it ever so slightly more prone to cracking/spiderwebbing if dropped. You can not have scratch proof AND shatter proof. :)
[Defy General] Phut:
Well you could, it's just that then the glass wouldn't be clear.
[Defy General] 999phonebug:

So I finally bit the bullet and purchased two Galilio 2000mah batteries from ebay and currently have been quite pleased, however, I use the battery monitor widget found in the marketplace and I have found that it is not correctly displaying the temperature. It is always stuck at 77.3 F. Using stock battery I am able to get a accurate temperature.

I like to be able to get a temp reading so I can stop using the phone if it gets too hot.

Any ideas why this is happening and/or recommendation for one that will work?

You're going to be okay just by feeling the phone. If it gets hot to the touch, shut it off or take it out of your pocket. It's a waste of space having battery temperatures displayed if you ask me, unless you're way overclocked or running Snap.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnkim0011:
Well I'm guessing the liquid went into crucial parts and the label turned red. I don't know what exactly happened. I installed Invisible Shield about 7 times and I've not had a problem.

It's not even booting. Well I think it is booting because the phone turns really heated after awhile but nothing displays on the screen nor the button lights.

It has not been over 30 days but it's past 14 days so I'm not sure what I can do.

1) Would I be able to buy the black tie plan?

2) Should I call Samsung? How much would it cost to get a replacement device?

3) Ask T-Mobile if I could get my 2 yr contract terminated and re-sign?

Please help me out...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenvan19:
1) You can still get the black tie protection, yes. Do it over the phone though.

2) In the future, if you get liquid on your phone...

DO NOT TURN IT ON

Immediately remove the battery and place the phone in a bag of rice for about 3 days. When you turn it on with liquid inside you'll fry all the circuits and you'll be SOL.

3) Don't do that. Just get the black tie over the phone or bring the receipt only into the store, wait a few hours then bring the phone in (only if you had to go into the store, if you do it over the phone go right into the store).
